“Last night my doctor #DrPiro came over for dinner. I’m extremely lucky to have such a close relationship with him and it was perfect timing to see him. I tend to be hard on myself. I think a lot of people with cancer are hard on themselves. It’s easy to say… I’m not active enough, my hairs not growing fast enough, I’ve aged, my weight is too high or too low,” she wrote.

Doherty continued, “What is hard, is to give ourselves a break and a pat on the back for facing a demon like cancer. So thank you Dr P for reminding me that I’m doing ok right now and to cut myself some slack.”
